Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Among 60 maize inbred lines, 975-12 showed the highest salt tolerance.
- Observation Among 60 maize inbred lines, GEMS64 showed the lowest salt tolerance.
- Intervention effect Salt stress significantly increased antioxidant enzyme levels in both 975-12 and GEMS64.
- Association ABA signal transduction and jasmonic acid pathways were the pathways mainly affected by salt stress.
- Intervention effect Under high salt stress, ZmHSP90 expression increased in the tolerant line 975-12.
- Intervention effect Tobacco plants overexpressing ZmHSP90 showed increased antioxidant enzyme activity associated with salt tolerance.
- Intervention effect ZmHSP90 enhanced expression of NtSOS1, NtHKT1 and NtNHX1 in tobacco compared with the salt treatment.
- Mechanism The authors suggest high ZmHSP90 expression helped regulate Na+ transporters to keep K+/Na+ balanced in tobacco.
